Hello

My question has to do with python and linux - I was interested in

finding out what it would take to reimplement the Linux Kernel in python

basically just taking the source code from linux and rewriting it in

python Would this idea make sense to do - if so what would be the

benefits of doing this and in what way would this not be a good idea

Cheers

Um, you''re the one suggesting a re-write. Doesn''t that mean

it''s sort of your job to know the benefits of doing it? There

are certainly endless reasons why it''s not a good idea...

Um sorry I should say in your opinion what would be the benefits and

also what would be the disbenefits

I understand some of the benefits but not all

Let me be more explicit then. I think this is an idea that

is based on very little understanding of what is involved,

to the point that I think it would be pointless to discuss

it without knowing what are the things *you* perceive as

being benefits, and what disadvantages or potential road-blocks

*you* have already thought of.
